ENGINE OIL INSPECTION AND CHANGE
INSPECTION:
1. Use the main parking stand to support the scooter on a level ground, remove the dipstick after engine
stopped for 3~5 minutes. Wipe oil off the dipstick and then insert it into the guide tube again (Do not
rotate it.)
2. Remove the dipstick and check whether oil level is in between the upper and lower marks.
Add oil to upper limit if oil is under the lower limit. (Check cylinder, crankcase…etc for leakage.)
OIL CHANGE:
• Change engine oil after the first 300km, and change the engine oil
every 3,000km thereafter. Clean oil filter after the first 300km, and
clean oil filter every 6,000km.
• In order to maintain the engine’s maximum performance, check
whether the engine oil is enough every 1,000km. Add oil to upper
